Once you have the unlocked Huawei Idea 3G NetSetter device up and running, you need the network profile settings for your Idea NetSetter to access the internet. Launch Mobile Partner. Go to Tools -> Options -> Profile Management. Click on the New button. Enter anything as the Profile Name. Select‘Static’ for APN and key in the APN key provided to you by the network provider. You can check the APN settings even in your cellphone and use the same here. Access Number will be *99# for most networks. However, it is better too Google a bit if it does not work for you or call the specific customer care. Click on Save and you are done.Advanced Settings need not be changed. Now go to the Connections tab of the software and select the saved profile and click on Connect. You should be able to connect. Also, do remember that the above process remains the same even for the Branded 3G Device Software.
Settings for Docomo (GPRS\3G)
- Access Number: *99#
- APN: TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET
Settings for Reliance (GPRS)
- Access Number: *99#
- APN: rcomnet
Settings for Uninor (GPRS)

i’m using unlocked Idea Huawei E-1550 3g Net setter.. i’ve a videocon sim.some tdays ago when i have turned your mode to “wcdma preffered” in network settings.
that time nework had registered,now it is not done.so i can not accese internet speed up to mbps,pls give me solusion,my email add is ssjvanani@yahoo.co.in
you need to set it to WCDMA Only and not preferred. Setting preferred means that if there no or low 3G network available, the modem will switch to 2G automatically. However with WCDMA only, this will not happen even if there is low or no 3G network. It will keep searching for 3G.
Hi,
i bought idea 3g data card with sim. 1 day old
i am always connected as edge….even network is wcdmapreferred.
i tried to register manually for network like airtel 3g …but network register is not successful…
gor idea net setter…which 3g network to be set.
Thanks,
Madan
If you have a locked idea netsetter and idea sim, you cannot use any other sim and since you are using idea sim, how do you think you will ever be able to connect to Airtel 3G 8-() , you will always connect to Idea 3G only and since you have selected WCDMA Preferred the netsetter will always connect to a network that has more signal strenth, in your case it is the 2G network. Select the mode as WCDMA only and then the netsetter will only connect to idea 3G Network (if you have the 3G coverage in your area).
hi i have to do all setting in idea 3g net setter e1550 for 3g speed ,,i have to set wcdma prefferd,n my location is fully under 3g network …after that i can’t get 3g speed only i got 12kbps downlod speed,,,,pls help me n show me if any setting is there for more speed

Plz tell me free gprs trick for Idea Net Setter…
Hello I have Idea netsetter 1550 April mfg month I have successfully broken the lock and I am using Tata docomo SIM which If I insert in a cell phone(samsung corby pro B5310) It shows 3G symbol next to the towers but when I use it in Netsetter I have net speed of just (max) 14 kbps.
please help me How can I increase these speed.
Thanks,
If you are not using a 3G plan then the speed automatically gets curtailed to a speed of 128 kbps. Also ensure that your netsetter is picking up the 3G network (WCDMA Only in Profile Settings).
hi bro,
instead of recharging more money i use idea gprs sim in idea netsetter, by recharging 98 rupees mobile internet but problem is , its giving error and disconnecting itself. showing error. so much confused.
Make sure you are using the correct GPRS settings in the profile and select the 3G network instead of the 2G network. This will give you much better speed than GPRS but only @128kbps which 16 kb/sec download speed. You should not be charged extra money but just check before you use 3G more. Open a few websites with the 3G network and check if money gets deducted.
plz tell me how to unlock the idea net setter
please help me bro wat i shud do to this idea unlocked netsetter. mail me

Idea:
APN : internet
Access number : *99#
I have idea netsetter (unlock) and DOCOMO card, but after unlock it not show signle(TOwer) but same card is working in my mobile at the same place & time, once I got the tower speed was 236kbps(GPRS)I had search for 3G-WCDMA in network for register(3.6mbps)but can’t got the speed, my basic proble is not getting tower indicator.
Your 3G reception may be week in the area where you are residing. Moreover, if you are getting more towers in your phone then that is because you can move your phone and phones tend to have a better reception than data cards. Also, try moving your laptop or PC in a spot where you can get more reception, may be near the window or somewhere.
i have idea net setter and i unlock it but after unlocking it`s speed is not more than 25kb. on idea sim card.
what can i do
It has nothing to do with the netsetter.
Can i use 3G in my IDEA NETSETTER EG162G
i m using idea net setter in idea sim,,,,,,some problem came
I AM UNABLE TO SEARCH ANY NETWORK ON MY IDEA NETSETTER e-1550, but the area where i stay, idea signal strength is good enough.
please let me know the necessary steps to be done to make it working.
thanks in advance.
just to add above, i am using idea sim itself..
You need to check if your area has Idea 3G coverage.
yes, i checked & brought idea person to see the network strength and they found excellent. so, i think there is no problem with network signal. however, i gave the device at idea centre to check the device itself.
this really useful for me and i got chance to analyses each service providers speed on their offers
Hello friend. this was really what i call a GOOD Work. Thanks a lot. This dont mean i cant spend money to unlock the data card. But i wanted to do it myself and succeed… That gives lot of pleasure… Thank i have done it.. Thanks once more… keep writing.
how to get aircel 3g services through 2g internet pack in unlocked idea net setter…………plz can u say that trick
If you are in a region where Tata Docomo shares Aircel network( Example – Bihar, West Bengal, UP, etc), you can use 2G plans from Tata D on 3G network at a capped speed of 128 kbps. If you are holding a Aircel sim, then it is difficult to say. Alternatively, you can always use Idea 2G plans on 3G network ar a capped speed of 128kbps in any part of the country.
You can do audio/video chat (tested/verified with Skype) using the 2G plans on 3G network at the capped speed of 128 kbps.
hii.. i m also using IDEA E1550.. docomo card 2G plan. But getting to much less speed than mobile.. i m getting just 15kbps using 3G modem.. plz help me out.. i m getting full 3G coverage in mobile..
& when I connect it saws HSDPA connection
Make sure you are having a 3G plan activated, 2G plans get speed capped at 128 kbps.
Hi I am us the mobile partner and useing tata dokomo card but I can not get speed as 3g..
Please check if you have a 3G plan activated and also using a 3G network. The profile setting should be ‘WCDMA Only’.
error 619 occurs what is the solution?
This is either due to –
1. Wrong APN configuration.
2. Network related issue.
3. Not signed up for appropriate data plan.
Solution –
1. Try removing the card and re-inserting in the USB port and try.
2. Contact your network’s service center.
i m using uninor card

Hi.. i have unlocked the idea netsetter, but unable to connect.
I have followed steps as changed profile name- Docomo, then selected APN to “Static” WITH “TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET” Settings, then saved. After that when i am trying to connect, its not connecting, it shows to register the network.
i am trying to register, but the network that are under search operators are ” 40513, Airtel, Cell One, Idea, 405037, INA27, 405929″. I tried to connect through each network, but unable to register.
Please help and provide necessary settings.
You probably do not have access to the 3G network or the TATA DOCOMO 3G network is not available in your area. Try speaking with the customer care.
Hi Anunay,
I have already checked, we have DOCOMO 3G network in our area. still, it is not working.
just to make sure, the settings done is correct? please confirm or we need to do some extra settings in “Advanced” settings.
Thanks.

Hey!
Thanks a lot for your guidence, it solved my problem regarding DOCOMO internet access in IDEA NetSetter. Keep it up Guyz!!
Is there any method how to increase DOCOMO GPRS speed?? plz reply !
Try connecting in 3G mode, if connected, you will get 112 kbps (12-16 KB/sec – u/d) robust speed with your 2G plan, you can then make uninterrupted skype/video calls. But do make sure that there is no deduction from your talktime and data gets deducted from your 2G internet balance.
a lot of thankas
